Overview

Cardiac MRI

ACCF/ACR/AHA/NASCI/SCMR 2010 Guidelines for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance - Cardiac MRI in Aortic Insufficiency (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

CMR may be used for assessing individuals with valvular heart disease in which evaluation of valvular stenosis, regurgitation, para- or perivalvular masses, perivalvular complications of infectious processes, or prosthetic valve disease are needed. CMR may be useful in identifying serial changes in LV volumes or mass in patients with valvular dysfunction.

2008 ACC/AHA Guidelines for Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease - Cardiac MRI in Aortic Insufficiency (DO NOT EDIT) [2]

Class IIa
"1. Radionuclide angiography or magnetic resonance imaging is indicated for the initial and serial assessment of LV volume and function at rest in patients with AR and suboptimal echocardiograms. (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIa
"1. Magnetic resonance imaging is reasonable for the estimation of AR severity in patients with unsatisfactory echocardiograms. (Level of Evidence: B)"
